Re: [PATCH 1/2] Btrfs: fix permissions of empty files not affected by umask

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

Any concerns on this patchset? Any chance it can be integrated in time
for 3.8 or too risky for it? The Bugzilla entry contains some test
cases that reproduce the issue fairly easily by unmounting the
filesystem right after creating an empty file... Let me know if there
are any extra fixes or tests you'd like me to provide.

Thanks,
Filipe
